Group Work: Class Administration

Each group will be in charge of class administration every fourth class period. The following outlines the responsibilities of the group for these periods.

The Administrative Group for the day will:

1. take over class direction after the instructor's lecture
2. lead the class discussion
3. take notes during the class discussion
4. announce the upcoming assignments
5. perform a reading from the day's assigned text

It is suggested that to carry out these duties, the group will assign different individual's to take on these different tasks. For example, the tasks can be divided among: a class leader, a discussion leader, a note-taker, an announcer, and a reader. However, these are only examples. You could break the job of taking notes among two people. You could have the person making the announcements also lead the discussion and  conduct the meeting. The important thing is that, regardless of how you break down the tasks, someone is there on the assigned day to do the assigned work. Equally important, you are expected to submit the breakdown of who will be performing what tasks for the assigned day by midnight the day before.

The following form should be submitted the day before the group leads the class, by midnight:
